From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Following news that Broadchurch will return for a third series despite a generally disappointing reaction to the second run, fans of the show have been sharing their predictions for the next storyline.

ITV announced that another series had been commissioned as the credits rolled for last night’s closing episode, which saw Joe Miller banished to Sheffield (the new ‘being sent to Coventry’, one viewer noted) after narrowly escaping a guilty verdict for the murder of schoolboy Danny Latimer.

Some Twitter users reckon there’s another murderer in the midst, with Joe innocent after all…

“We’ve been overwhelmed that nine million people every week have continued to join us on the twists and turns of Broadchurch,” creator and writer Chris Chibnall said.

“This third chapter has been a glint in my eye for a long time and I’m thrilled to be writing these characters once again.”
